New7Wonders of Nature Campaign Now that we’re familiar with the New7Wonders campaign, you get the chance to explore one of the natural wonders that made the finals. Follow the instructions below and be sure that all group members record the necessary information in their notebooks. Research and Short Presentation
1) Visit New7Wonders of Nature website to see the list of finalists. As a group, choose one of the finalists that you believe should be included as one of the new top 7 natural wonders of the world.
2) Research the natural wonder and record the following in your notebook: • Name and geographic location • Physical geography characteristics (type of landform, climate and
weather etc.) • Unique characteristics • Types of tourism this natural wonder provides • Why should this be one of the new top 7 natural wonders?
3) Create a short Haiku Deck presentation using the photos that accompany your description and put together a short presentation (3-‐4min) that will be shared at our round table tourism convention. USE THE HEADINGS ABOVE to organize your 5-‐6 slide presentation (name and location, physical geography, unique characteristics, type of tourism, why vote for this wonder?)
Round Table Tourism Convention The tourism industry holds a wide-‐variety of conferences and conventions throughout the year as a way to exchange knowledge, share ideas and to develop strategies and best practices to improve ecotourism the world over. Your small group will present your natural wonder nomination at our round table convention. Convince all of the participants that your natural wonder is worthy of being one of the new top 7 natural wonders. We will vote after the presentations to see which of the natural wonders will be the official New7Wonders!
